Under Siege

This piece is a depiction of a sexy warrior woman in the midst of a battle. I wanted to highlight the lady's face and figure, yet still be able to show her dressed in a practical sense for her predicament. I don't imagine she is looking at the viewer either. Rather, I think she's looking back at the overwhelming dangers surrounding her. This piece also appeared in the July 2005 issue of Heavy Metal Magazine. (c) Copyright Richard Santos 2003

#@&y is right... not sure if its battle strategy...but it works for me!!!!! Great work on the chain mail...detail is awesome Richard.

Artist Reply: Wow! Thanks very much again for all your compliments and comments! I think she's just trying to survive the fight and looking at another beast lunging towards her, but maybe they're all battling over her!! Who knows? After all, if she looks this good in war, imagine when she's relaxed in an evening qown...!!!
